When he says "sympatric", it sounds a little bit like "Stupid Pet Trick". On a more serious note, when I looked up that definition of sympatric years ago, the first thing that came to mind was something about race relations. Their next album has the song "Smallpox Champion" which dealt with wiping out the Native Americans by giving them infected blankets, so somehow I made a connection between the two songs. Perhaps it is about how we can exist in the same place as minorities but overlook them and not be concerned about them.
